Early Saturday, Brisbane.
Just finished a gruelling three days listening to a bunch of students dribbling on about their excruciatingly bad films.
(Then managed to sneak an internet session in through various nefarious means -- which is OK, even if it does mean using WinFerkinDoze.)
No, I mean, it really was horrible.
The pattern is: [Drone on about film in general] + [Show lousy film up to about 10 minutes] + [Drone on some more about how terribly important the lousy film is].
Repeat 20 times daily for three days.
I think they were trying to impress the sponsors: a bank known to occasionally invest in films.
(Couldn't be worse than sub-prime loans surely?)
So it was a bunch of wankers trying to impress a wunch of bankers.

Can't wait to get back to Minjup.
Horses, goats and alpacas make a lot more sense to me.
